Put your creativity to the test - case options. ;-)

I just got this set of components from our Christmas party gift exchange earlier tonight and was thinking of making a headless PC out of it and run something like Freesco.

P-100 on a Compaq Socket 7 mobo
2 Meg S3 DX/VX video
10mbps Ethernet
2 MB RAM (has a DIMM slot free tho, so i'll up it l8r)
1.44 floppy
140w PS
3.2 Seagate HDD
Some obscure Soundcard

My only thing is, it doesn't have a case. So anybody got suggestions on how i can pack this together? I could very well just put everything on the floor like the innards of a robot but that wouldn't be fun

I just dumped a whole bunch of old AT cases. If ya want I can dig in my junk drawer and see if I have some old DIMMs or SIMs

koukla, that'd be cool. I do have a DIMM tho, so thanks for the offer - dya still have one of those cases? heheh.. Funny tho since the 2mb RAM that comes with the mobo is actually built-in to the thing and there's only one free DIMM slot.

heheh.. even the L2 cache is a module on this thing

Or, you can do what russ has done

Crack Rack
click on test labs, then cluster computing project

Or, better yet, get some thick plexiglass, and custome build your own case.
